Have been trying some different solutions from the forum that i couldn’t get to work and have now tried to do my own solution but got a bit stuck.

I want to turn on a fan. The fan must turn off after the time that i set on a slider.

My first post so i hope the code formatting i correct

Edited: Edited the code input, removed spaces between lines and used ``` befor and after code.

input_number:
  toiletfan_input:
    name: toiletfan_input
    min: 0
    max: 120
    step: 30
    step: 1

timer:
  fan_timer:
    duration: '00:01:00'

script:
  start_fantimer:
    sequence:
      - service: timer.start
        data_template:
          entity_id: fan_timer
          duration: "00:{{ states('input_number.toiletfan_input') }}:00"

automation:
  - alias: 'Toilet fan control'
    trigger:
      - platform: state
        entity_id: fan.toilet_fan
        from: 'off'
        to: 'on'
    condition:
      condition: template
      value_template: "{{  timer.fan_timer  < 1 }}"
    action:
      - service: fan.turn_off
        entity_id: fan.toilet_fan
